Barnet cruise past Dover Athletic to go top of Conference

Barnet recorded their seventh win in eight games with a 3-0 win over Dover Athletic to go back to the top of the Conference Premier this evening.

Luke Gambin added a brace to Luisma Villa's opener as Martin Allen's side cruised to the three points at the Crabble Athletic Ground with their fifth straight victory.

Spaniard Luisma got the ball rolling on 16 minutes when he headed home, before Gambin doubled the advantage with a tap-in at the back post on the stroke of half time.

Gambin had his second on the hour mark when he met a cross with his left foot and it squirmed past Mitchell Walker in the Dover goal.

On-loan Luton striker Ricky Miller missed a decent opportunity towards the end of the game to reduce the deficit, but the forward couldn't sort his feet in time when the ball was fired to him inside the box.

Miller came even closer in stoppage time when he rattled a free kick against the crossbar, before Christian Nanetti hit the woodwork seconds later with a fierce effort.
